Key Features
Upsides

Description
This townhouse located at De Slinger 15 offers a combination of modern living, sustainability, and a convenient location near the Het Rond shopping center. Built in 2017, the property has been well maintained and features approximately 168 square meters of living space spread across four full floors. The property includes six bedrooms, an extended living room, and a parking space on private ground.
The ground floor provides access to the property through a maintained front garden. The entrance hall contains the meter cupboard, a tidy toilet room with a wall hung toilet and small sink, and the staircase to the first floor. From the hall, you enter the spacious living area. At the front is the modern open kitchen installed in 2018, finished in a stylish manner and equipped with high quality Siemens built in appliances. These include a combination steam oven, combination microwave, induction hob, dishwasher, extractor hood, and fridge freezer combination. The kitchen also features a Quooker instant boiling water tap. The open connection with the living room creates a pleasant and spacious living environment where cooking, dining, and relaxing naturally come together.
At the rear of the ground floor is the extended living room. The extension provides extra space for a generous seating area and a large dining table. A practical under stairs cupboard offers additional storage space, while the wide sliding door allows plenty of daylight and provides direct access to the garden. Underfloor heating throughout the entire ground floor contributes to comfortable living and can also provide light cooling during summer months.
The back garden is a pleasant outdoor space where you can relax, eat, or enjoy the outdoors in peace. At the back of the garden is the freestanding wooden storage shed and a back entrance. A significant advantage is the direct connection to the private parking space behind the property. Additionally, the property borders a quietly located playground, combining the convenience of parking on your own property with a safe and pleasant play environment directly behind the home.
The first floor offers access via the landing to two spacious bedrooms. Both rooms are pleasantly sized and pleasantly light thanks to the large windows. All windows on this floor are fitted with electrically operated screens, allowing you to easily ensure extra comfort and a pleasant indoor climate on warm and sunny days.
The modern bathroom is neatly finished and equipped with all conveniences. It features a spacious walk in shower, a double sink with vanity unit, underfloor heating, and a second toilet. This is a comfortable and practical space to start and end the day.
The second floor is reached via a fixed staircase. Here you will also find a spacious landing and two generous rooms. These rooms are highly suitable as bedrooms, home offices, hobby rooms, or guest rooms. This floor also offers plenty of flexibility for families, home workers, or residents who need additional living space. As on the first floor, all windows on the second floor are fitted with electrically operated screens.
The third floor makes this property truly special. Here are two more full sized rooms, bringing the total to six bedrooms. This provides enormous freedom in use: extra bedrooms, a quiet home workspace, hobby room, playroom, fitness room, or guest room are all possibilities.
Also located on this floor is the technical room. Here you will find the heat pump, the large 20 kWh home battery, the connections for the washing machine and dryer, and the CO2 controlled mechanical ventilation system. Everything is practically placed together and contributes to the sustainable and future oriented character of the property.
In terms of sustainability, this property is fully prepared for the future. It features underfloor heating throughout the entire house, a heat pump, 14 solar panels, and a large 20 kWh home battery. Combined with energy label A+, this ensures comfortable and energy efficient living. The electrically operated sun blinds and screens on all rooms on the first and second floors contribute to a pleasant indoor climate, even during warm summer days.
The location near the Het Rond shopping center, the NS railway station, schools, theater, cinema, restaurants, and sports facilities means all daily amenities are within easy reach. At the same time, you live here in a quiet, spaciously designed residential environment with a playground directly behind the property. This makes this location particularly attractive for families, home workers, and anyone who wants to live comfortably with both peace and liveliness in the immediate vicinity.
The property is offered at a price of 765,000 euros, costs payable by the buyer. The price per square meter is approximately 4,554 euros.
